“The goal of social justice is completely different to the goal of the Bible. Advocates want to tear down God-given authority structures, such as the family and the church, since these are ‘tools of oppression’. They are seeking a completely different kind of society. This won’t be like heaven on earth. It will be a world without God, the Bible, our Creator’s definitions of good and evil, and the offer of full and free salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.”
(Matthew Seymour – Evangelical Times) Some see the evangelical debate about social justice as a disagreement on strategy or emphasis. But it is much more than that. If the language of social justice is incompatible with biblical justice, then using it to connect with our culture is not an error of strategy but a change in theology. This matters.
Church history has many examples of debates which would have been better undertaken in private or perhaps not at all. Paul’s command to ‘make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace’ (Ephesians 4:3) is always vital to remember.
